【第一篇】
I bought a jasmine plant for my office. When I bought it, I was told it would bloom(开花) and the sweet smell would fill my office. I had the plant for two months, and every day I looked at it, but there weren?t any flowers or pleasant smell. I was not happy, so I gave the plant to my friend Linda. One day, another friend Mary called and invited me to her office.
When I walked in, her jasmine flowers surprised me. I reached out to touch the flowers. Mary cut some and gave them to me. I couldn?t help smelling them. Surrounded by the sweet smell of only a handful of these flowers, I suddenly understood something. Mary bought her plant the same time I did. It took a year for her jasmine to bloom. I was so impatient for mine to bloom; regretfully, I gave it away. In a way my life is like the jasmine plant. I need to be patient and let things happen. Last Sunday Linda told me that she was going abroad the next week. Before she left, she returned the plant to me. This time I am going to wait. I have learned that when we want something in our life, we have to be patient. I am slowly learning to have that patience to wait for my jasmine to bloom.

Grades are not Everything
I don't think grades are important. Students have different abilities and some of them can't be measured by grades， such as creativity， abilities to communicate and act.
To start with， I wasn't good at English and seldom got high scores on the exams. But one day， my teacher encouraged me to perform in an English play because of my good pronunciation and lively expressions. To perform well， I studied my lines many times and even dressed up like the character. While we were performing， I could hear my classmates cheering. How excited! Later， my teacher praised me for my wonderful acting and this made me more confident and interested in English.
All in all， grades can be a way to measure students' achievements in schoolwork. However， different interests and abilities can make a students a full man.
